On the road to recovery from Tommy John surgery, Ivan Nova will make his third and final minor leauge rehab start on Friday, June 19th. According to Christina De Nicola of yankees.com, it has not been decided if Nova will throw with the Yankees Triple-A team, Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, or the Yankees Double-A team, the Trenton Thunder. The target for Nova to return is by the end of June, as the Yankees plan to activate Nova and place him in the starting rotation after Friday’s rehab start.
A roster move or any changes to the rotation and bullpen have not yet been announced by the team to make room for Nova once he comes off the disabled list.
